Insert the information in the form and the calculator will determine the bond order.

What is the bond order?

Bond order is the number of chemical bonds between a pair of atoms. The bond order is an indicator of the stability of a bond. Single bond has a bond order of one, double bond has a bond order of two, triple bond has a bond order of three and so on.

How to calculate bond order?

To calculate the bond order you should:
- draw lawis structure.
- count the number of bonds.
- count the number of bond groups between individual atoms
- use the formula: bond order = number of bond groups between individual atoms.

Why use bond order?

The bond order is used in order to know the number of participating electrons in the formation of bonds. It also helps in understanding the stability of the bond and the bond length. High bond order indicates more stability.
